I Know Why There Are Tank Tops
athletic shoes
stinky socks
necessary draw’rs
ponytail holder
smart bermudas
bold brassiere
all in perspective glory
and then there are sleeves
any sleeves
all sleeves
feelings
hang out
hang on
easily seen
vulnerable
of all the things
it’s always the sleeves

really like your poem, title and all.
sleeves: where you wear feelings and wipe your nose
If not for your sleeves we would all seem so perfect.
